I have the following at home: a couple of computers, wired LAN, Microsoft Server OS and XP and willingness to try something new. Do you have any neat idea what I can do with these ingredients?

Format your PCs and put linux on them.

Pour a bucket of water on them while they're booting up.

Um...

See how hard you can throw a hard drive platter before it will shatter.

Ponder going into IT, then go screaming into the night as you sober up....

Try here: Ars Technica Forums Oh, and check out the long Photoshop thread on the world's largest Cheeto. Funniest thing I ever saw on the web... Lots of Cheeto Pics

Great technical resource when I was starting my career in IT. Join, ask, learn. It's a great community also. I'd put together a simple file and print server, learn about backups, maybe a Sharepoint Server (like your own portal site), then graduate to a web server and possibly even a mail/ftp server for yourself and your family.

MS Documentation is available here:

MS TechNet
Server 2003 Article Index Install Guide - Server 2003
Networking topics

poke around those sites for other stuff...

Papadage, thanks for the sites. Will check them out for additional info.

Seems like I gave a wrong impression to others who may think I'm a lost soul looking for either a profession or purpose in life.
